Both LAN1 and LAN2 will also have local Internet access. Therefore we need to configure Dynamic NAT on the ASA firewalls to allow the private LAN networks to access the Internet. However, traffic from LAN-1 to LAN-2 (and viceversa) which will pass through the VPN tunnel, MUST be excluded from any NAT operation. 0 ASA-2(config-network-object)# exit ASA-2(config)# nat (inside,outside) 1 source static obj-local obj-local destination static objremote obj-remote 46 Enjoy Chapter 3 Using Access Control Lists (ACL) In Chapter 2 we have described the Network Address Translation (NAT) security mechanism, which is one of the two major elements that an administrator needs to configure in order to enable communication through the firewall.

Per-Session PAT improves greatly the scalability of PAT because at the end of 35 Enjoy each per-session PAT connection, the ASA sends a reset and immediately removes the translation, thus tearing down the connection and hence freeing up resources on the device. For "hit-and-run" traffic, such as HTTP or HTTPS, the per-session feature is very efficient. However, for real time traffic (such as VoIP, H323, SIP etc) Per-Session PAT is not good. As we’ve said above, per-session PAT is enabled by default.

2 but with a different source port (1025). The source ports are dynamically changed to a unique number greater than 1023. A single PAT address can support around 64,000 inside hosts. Monitoring PAT Translations The ciscoasa# show xlate command displays the contents of the PAT translation table. 2 with source port 1024. The firewall keeps track of all NAT sessions using its xlate table, so that when a reply packet comes back from outside, the firewall will check its translation table to see which port number belongs to the particular reply packet in order to deliver it to the correct internal host.
